  • Question
  • The length of a rectangular plot is 20 meters more than its breadth. If the cost of fencing the plot @ 26.50 per meter is Rs. 5300. What is the length of the plot in meter?


  • Options
  • A. 40m
  • B. 50m
  • C. 60m
  • D. 10m

  • Correct Answer
  • 60m 

    Explanation

    let breadth = x then length = x+20  

    perimeter = 5300/26.50 = 200m 

    2(x+20+x) =200      => 4x+40 =200  

    x = 40 and length = 40+20 = 60m
